A Stay-at-home Dad’s Restaurant In An Alternate World (WN)

Chapter 1430: F Key To Load The Tank

A huge amount of vitality gushed out from the Tree of Life, and was injected into Irina’s body. At the same time, it spread out everywhere.

The spell formation barriers that were engulfing the Tree of Life began to vibrate vigorously before they were burst open. They looked so vulnerable in front of the massive vitality.

Irina’s magic caster’s staff was emitting a bright green light, and she looked just like a fairy who was standing upright at the canopy of the tree. A terrifying power was consolidating within the magic caster’s staff.

All the elves began to get nervous as they watched this scene. The Tree of Life was obviously still on Irina’s side, and the tremendous Life Force proved that the God of Life still favored her. This made all the elves a little hesitant if they should act against her.

Helena looked at the layers of spell formations that were burst open, and coldly shouted, “Irina betrayed the elves and colluded with the other species in an attempt to overthrow the Wind Forest. As the high priestess, I order you all to kill her on the spot!”

“But, High Priestess, the holy Tree of Life is right under Irina. If we launch an attack together, we might harm the holy tree,” an elf reminded.

All the elves started to look toward Helena. This was what everyone was wary about. The holy Tree of Life was the symbol of the elves and the only conduit connecting the elves to the God of Life. If the holy Tree of Life was affected in the battle, no one would be able to undertake that responsibility.

Helena looked at Irina, and coldly said, “How could you all be able to harm the holy Tree of Life? Irina has confused the holy Tree of Life and the God of Life. We shall kill her today so we can return peace and harmony to the Wind Forest. That is what we, as the God of Life’s believers, should do.”

All the 10th-tier elven magic casters were the first to raise up their magic caster’s staffs and chant spells. All kinds of colorful light began to converge on the magic caster’s staffs as they aimed at Irina.

Although the other elves still looked a little hesitant, they still raised up their magic caster’s staffs and bows, and aimed at Irina after they heard Helena’s words.

The elves in the square broke into a commotion. Irina, who had suddenly appeared, disrupted this conferring ceremony, and the elves couldn’t wait to escape from the impending battle.

Even a small shock wave from a battle of the 10th-tier powerhouses could seriously injure them. Hence, many of the elves were running in the opposite direction in an attempt to get out of the epicenter of the battlefield.

But, there were also many elves who were looking at Irina with a complex expression. The elves had directed a lot of expectations and emotions to her during all her years as the elven princess. They all believed that she would one day take over from the queen, and continue to protect the Wind Forest.

However, no one had expected that she would stand on the opposite side, and become the so-called leader of the rebels.

The sudden appearance of the Night Elves and the flag of freedom had ripped the elven race apart like a sharp knife. It wasn’t just the elves from the base and the slaves—many among the nobles also began to have serious reservations, and even joined the Night Elves secretly.

Therefore, when almost everyone was retreating, some chose to stay and even go against the flow.

“Protect the holy Tree of Life!”

“You cannot harm the holy Tree of Life!”

Many ordinary elves who were blocked at the periphery of the square began to try to attack the cordon and push against those soldiers who prevented their advancement. If freedom was the faith that many elves had forgotten, then the God of Life and the holy Tree of Life were the elves’ inviolable faith.

Sally stepped forward, and shouted at Helena and all the powerhouses, “The holy Tree of Life only has a tremendous Life Force, and doesn’t have the slightest defensive ability. We had paid a terrible price in the past to protect the holy Tree of Life. If we attack the holy Tree of Life with all of our race’s might, wouldn’t we be destroying the holy tree and cutting off our connection with the God of Life ourselves? The elven race would lose our faith and our guardian god forever. High Priestess, everyone, please tread lightly!”

“This…” All the elven powerhouses halted their movements when they heard that.

No elves could withstand losing the protection of the God of Life, and that was something they were not willing to do.

Furthermore, Sally who was about to be conferred as the new elven princess said that, so the words carried even more weight.

Helena looked at Sally with a meaningful gaze.

Sally’s eyes didn’t evade her at all, and she looked at her with a worried look.

“Helena, release all the Night Elves. I will bring them away and I will not pursue today’s matter. If you insist on fighting me to the death, I wonder if you, the high priestess, will be able to withstand the aftermath causing the elves to lose the protection of the God of Life? And how are you going to explain it to Her Majesty when she comes out of seclusion?” Irina said to Helena in a cold voice.

“I’ve never been threatened,” Helena answered coldly.

“It’s the smoke beacon!”

“There are smoke beacons everywhere!”

“Could this be a foreign invasion!?”

Right at that moment, the elves in the square finally discovered the black smoke that was rising up from every part of the Wind Forest. As they were so close together, the entire forest looked like it was on fire, and all the elves were plunged into panic.

Blour looked at the thick smoke and lowered his magic caster’s staff gradually. A hint of elation flashed across his eyes. The princess didn’t disappoint them at all. It seemed like he didn’t need to interfere today.

The elves who were retreating stopped, and watched that scene with astonishment. As if they were reminded of something, excitement was flashing in their eyes.

An elf in black robes appeared next to Helena, and whispered rapidly into her ear. Helena’s expression darkened instantly.

The worst had still happened. She used the whole race’s might to attack Irina and Alex, who she had anticipated would appear too. In the end, she still ended up falling for Irina’s plot.

Irina looked at all the smoke beacons that appeared everywhere with a smile, and declared, “The elves never had slaves. The queen has ordered to abolish the slave system and give freedom back to all the elves herself, but you all have completely ignored the queen’s order, and continued to enslave our people after she went into seclusion. Today, I am going to release all the slaves and give them their freedom back. If anyone dares stop me, that will be blatant disobedience.”

The nobles present all paled. Nobody was willing to take on the accusation of blatant disobedience. However, they were all worried about their domains right now. They were all used to being served. If they were to lose all their slaves and servants… they were not willing to withstand that, either.

“Kill her and then catch and hang all those fellows who attempted to overthrow order and resist!” Helena ordered in a cold voice, and then raised the crystal ball in her hands over her head. The Starry Sky Domain instantaneously engulfed Irina and the Tree of Life. Day turned into night and stars crowded the sky.

“F key to load the tank.”

Meanwhile, Mag was driving the mobile restaurant that had transformed into a giant tank, and was trying to crush a troop of elven soldiers who were pursuing a group of slaves.
